Termite Inspections | Wood Destroying Insect Inspections WDIs | Morganville Monmouth County NJ- Based Jersey Strong Home Inspection
Wood-destroying insects (often abbreviated WDIs) can do extensive damage to a home if left unchecked and permitted to continue for some time. Almost every NJ home is potentially susceptible to these insects. The four types of insects commonly referred to as wood-destroying insects are termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and wood-boring beetles. To perform Monmouth County NJ Termite Inspections and Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspections (and the surrounding Middlesex, Union, Somerset, Essex, Ocean, and Morris counties), most lenders will require that the inspector is also licensed to apply chemicals. Some home inspectors are NJ-licensed pesticide applicators, although we at Jersey Strong don’t apply pesticides professionally.
Termite and other wood-destroying insect inspections are one of Jersey Strong Home Inspection’s many inspection services that we offer in Monmouth County, NJ, and throughout the surrounding area’s county towns. Jersey Strong Home Inspection offers a visual wood-destroying insect (WDI) inspection that can be performed with or without a general home inspection.
A WDI inspection covers the visually accessible areas of a home. Our inspection will review areas that are currently infected, have previous damage, and point out conditions that could lead to future damage. This inspection checks, but is not limited to, the door and window framings, foundation, wood joists, and basement area. Other areas checked, which can harbor insects, include firewood and various debris stored against a home. Vegetation in contact with the house, wood siding in contact with the soil, and grade, which does not slope away from the foundation, are other areas of concern.
